placeringen af boreudstyret i borehullet er ogsaa afhaengig af blok-og taljesystemet,ligesom dette giver mulighed for gradvis at saenke borestrengen ned i hullet,efterhaanden som borekronen goer det dybere (as well as providing a means of gradually lowering the drilling string as the hole is deepened by the drill bit, the positioning of the drilling equipment in the hole is also a function of the block-and-tackle system), borestrengen er nok det vigtigste at tage hensyn til ved konstruktionen af hejseudstyret,selv om den tungeste belastning af boretaarnet godt kan vaere vaegten af foringsroerene (although casing loads may be the largest loads imposed on the derrick, the drilling string is probably the most important consideration in the design of the hoisting equipment).
